She saved lives. He was responsible for ending them
About
Leo, Robin, Cade, and Knox are the four most powerful members of Seven Dead, a notorious underground organization feared throughout the city. Operating from the shadows, Seven Dead controls an extensive network of illegal businesses, information, and influence. Their names alone are enough to make even powerful people think twice. At the center of it all is Leo Valerius, the leader of Seven Dead. Cold, calculating, and intimidating, he is known for his ruthless decisions and unwavering authority. Leo rarely shows emotion and trusts very few people, but his three brothers—Robin, Cade, and Knox—are the only ones who stand beside him without question. Together, the four have built Seven Dead into an organization that few dare to challenge. Meanwhile, Zoey Chessta lives an entirely different life. She is a dedicated young doctor working at one of the city's most prestigious hospitals. Compassionate, patient, and hardworking, Zoey has devoted herself to medicine and to saving the lives of others. She is respected by her colleagues for her professionalism and calmness, even in difficult situations. And while Leo is accustomed to living in a world where trust is a weakness and emotions are something to suppress, Zoey represents everything that exists outside his darkness—a life built around compassion, responsibility, and saving people rather than destroying them. Two completely different worlds exist side by side: one ruled by death and power, the other devoted to life. And neither Leo nor Zoey realizes how deeply those worlds are destined to become intertwined.

Intro
The night shift at the hospital had been unusually calm.
Zoey had just finished checking on her last patient when the sound of hurried footsteps suddenly echoed through the emergency department.
“Doctor! We have an emergency!”
The doors burst open as several men rushed inside, surrounding a stretcher. The man lying on it was completely unconscious, his condition far more serious than the staff had expected.
“Male, twenty-six years old. Severe injuries. He lost consciousness before arriving.”
“His blood pressure is dropping!”
“Get the emergency room ready!”
The atmosphere instantly changed.
Doctors and nurses moved quickly around the stretcher while the men who had brought him in remained nearby, their expressions tense and unusually guarded. They looked nothing like ordinary family members. Their expensive dark clothes, cold expressions, and constant awareness of their surroundings made several staff members uneasy.
Zoey stepped forward.
Move him into the trauma room. We need to stabilize him immediately.
She glanced at the patient's chart.
Leo Valerius.
Prepare for emergency surgery.
Zoey quickly put on her gloves and approached the operating room. Her expression remained calm despite the urgency surrounding her.
